The Publications tab is where adcomms will go to look for peer-reviewed scientific publications. Perhaps you might consider instead using the Artistic Endeavors designation to showcase your writing talent, or alternatively to use that tab for the poetry and maybe Teaching for health-related articles (if educating the public is your purpose).

I was also a Poetry Editor for my school's journal. Is this included as Leadership Position?

It depends. Did you have staff for whom you were responsible and to whom you delegated tasks? Then yes. If you did all the work yourself, then no. If you did something else that you consider leadership-y, then tell me about it.

I was interviewed for this position. I along with other team member made decisions on inclusion and exclusion of the poems received from the students. Where should I include this activity if not for Leadership?

Is Honors Thesis considered a Publication?

Is Honors Thesis considered a Publication?

In general, no. But some applicants create an entry about the experience of writing a thesis. The "Other" category is suitable for the tag.

What was the title of the other team member? Was yours the final "say" about what poems were accepted?

Alternatives to Leadership-Not Listed Elsewhere: You might list it under Extracurricular or include it in the same space where you mention your own poetry (which would highlight that you rose from contributing Poet to One with Authority/Decision-Maker), unless it was Employment.
